The best example of how SR ties into intuition as a concept is, in my opinion, The Matrix.

As The One, Neo symbolizes someone with control of their intention-manifestation capabilities in such a manner that it is intuitive to do, just like walking was before.

The idea of "trying to free your mind" is the idea of trying to make someone realize that their intentions, once they've awakened, carry immense power within this virtual reality.

The more you think it's real, the more you succumb to it's pitfalls.

The less you think it's real, the less you care about them, and the less they affect you.

Example from the Matrix: Neo is shot. Bleeds. Barely hears it.

He was in his own Zone. He didn't care about the bullet. he was unhurt.

As soon as he let himself think it was real, he succumbed to the following bullets.

Then, he realized subconsciously just what was going on. All the dots connected, and he woke up for real. Now, he was at the level of Jesus or Buddha. He could do anything. He could bend the laws of physics because he was the laws of physics as far as his own body was concerned. He was in the matrix, but not of it.

The idea of intuition comes in because the Oracle is intuition.

It tells him what he needs to hear, not what is true definitively. If it did, things would be set in stone.

That's not true, though, is it?

I also am a Rosicrucian, and I think the two ideas mix together well.

Rely on intuition when you're opening yourself to unknown intentions (in other words, you need it to see the problems that SR solves).

Hopefully this makes sense, because I've thought of it this way for a while.
